Dilute calicos, have the same separate blocks of color, only the colors are "diluted," i.e. They also may have blocks of tabby pattern, which produces an extremely colorful and beautiful cat. Calico: Separate solid blocks of color, which must include red (orange), black, and white.Tri-color Cats: Because of the associated genetic factors that create their color patterns, tri-color cats almost always are female, although occasional males crop up (about one in 3,000, according to this excellent article by Barbara French) Those rare males are almost always sterile, also for reasons of genetics, so don't expect to gain a fortune by selling your male calico cat.

Tabbies may also wear white "accessories," such as a bib, vest, or "boots." Thus, they could be described as a "tabby with white." Other patterns described for tabbies include the Ticked tabby, and Orange tabby, all of which have beautiful and unique patterns.
Spotted tabbies are another official variety and while Spotted tabbies sometimes crop up in a domestic shorthair, they are also often found in certain breeds, such as the Ocicat, Bengal, Savannah, and the American Bobtail. Depending on the specific pattern, the striped tabbies may be referred to as a Mackerel tabbies or Classic tabbies. Striped tabbies are often referred to as "tiger," for obvious reasons. They are easily differentiated by their stripes, whorls, and spots ( the latter generally found on their tummies) and each pattern has a distinct name. Tabbies: Tabby cats have some of the most common patterns and are some of the most popular.Commonly seen mixed breeds in shelters include Maine Coon mix, Persian mix, and Siamese mix. Mixed Breed: This term is most often used when a cat has identifiable features which might indicate a "purebred" cat is somewhere in its background.Alleycat: Thanks to the educational efforts of groups such as ACA (Alley Cat Allies), this term has fallen out of use, as cats are taken out of alleys and brought into loving, permanent homes.and Canada now use it to refer to their cats. as an affectionate description, and many cat lovers in the U.S. Moggie: This term was first used in the U.K.Housecat: A cat of any breed or coloring that is domesticated and living in a house.These cats are sometimes referred to by their hair length: DSH, or domestic shorthair DMH, or domestic medium hair and DLH, or domestic long hair.

Domestic Shorthair cat: This is the term used to identify pet cats not known to be of any particular breed.If you can't see the image I linked to, go to the article and the image is right above the section titled "Freckled Cats". The is some interesting info on tabbies there, too. I found a picture showing what the spotted "modifier" will result in when combined with the genes for classic tabby: If he didn't have the swirl I would probably say it was broken mackerel pattern, but with the "bullseye" type swirls, it makes me think maybe he's a spotted tabby with classic tabby patterning of the spots. I would say maybe he is a spotted tabby but with the spots being made from a classic pattern rather than a mackerel pattern (hope that made sense.) As in, instead of spots in vertical rows, the spots are swirled like a classic tabby. The red tabby does look like he maybe has a swirl pattern going on. There were several torbies (aka patched tabbies) in that litter, including some ticked and some mackerel. I just saw this post, the patched tabby reminds me of my previous rescued torbie kittens:
